We are staying at the Boardwalk for our upcoming September trip. We have a three resort ADRs planned. From past experience, we realize it can take longer to get from resort-to-resort and so were planning to take a cab for legs of the trip that is not to/from a park (have done this before). When I went online to book our towncar transfer this morning, I found an email from Southwest advertising a rental car Rapid Rewards special that got me wondering if it would make more sense for us to rent a car this trip. The cost is a little cheaper for the rental vs. the towncar + a few cab rides.
My main question for everyone is how is the transportation from the Boardwalk hotel to MK and AK? Does the bus make several stops at the BC/YC, Swan and Dolphin? If we got a car for the purpose of resort-hopping, I would consider taking it to the MK too if the BWI buses share with all the epcot resorts.
My second question is about parking at the TTC. Does anyone have any guesses as to how long would you estimate it to take to drive to the TTC from the Boardwalk and then take the resort monorail to say, the Contemporary or Grand Floridian? We are going to GF for dinner and then MK after and I know we can't park at the GF and leave our car there (limited dining parking time only). If we don't rent a car, we were either going to take a cab to the GF and then just monorail to MK. (which does seem less complicated and faster now that I write it out....)
Thanks everyone!
